    H2S Removal in Biogas

    Effective Solutions for H2S Removal in Biogas | FerroBio Group

    At FerroBio Group, we are leaders in the H2S removal industry in biogas. Our innovative approach and extensive experience have positioned us as the preferred partner for biogas desulfurization projects. If you are looking for effective and reliable solutions with the best cost-effectiveness in the industry to enhance the quality of your biogas, you’ve come to the right place.

    It is crucial to remove H2S from biogas for safety reasons, equipment protection, and biogas quality. H2S is toxic, corrosive, and poses risks to health and the environment. By removing it, a safe environment is created, corrosion is prevented, and the purity of biogas is improved, increasing its commercial value and potential as a renewable energy source. With our specialized H2S removal solutions at FerroBio Group, we guarantee efficient and safe desulfurization, meeting the highest quality standards.

    How we approach H2S removal in biogas: At FerroBio Group, we understand the challenges associated with H2S in biogas and offer customized solutions to meet each client’s specific needs. Our team of highly trained experts uses advanced desulfurization technologies to ensure efficient H2S removal and minimize environmental impacts through our line of iron hydroxide-based productsFerrobio Products

    Benefits of our solutions:

    1.Safe and easy handling: Our H2S removal solutions ensure safe and easy handling. With no explosive mixtures and no risk, no oxygen injection is required, providing peace of mind and ease in the process handling.

    2.Buffering effect: Our desulfurization system, Ferro Bio, features a unique buffering effect. In the event of a disruption in Ferro Bio addition, H2S levels would not increase rapidly due to the reaction kinetics. In contrast, if other competing products like Ferric Chloride are discontinued, there is a rapid increase in hydrogen sulfide levels.

    3.Corrosion risk solved: Our solutions reduce the risk of corrosion, thereby decreasing equipment maintenance costs. By maintaining an H2S-free environment, premature wear and damage caused by corrosion to system components are avoided.

    4.More efficient desulfurization process: In addition to being an effective system for reducing H2S, our solutions improve biogas productivity in the reactor. By efficiently removing H2S, process performance is optimized, and biogas production is maximized.

    5.Higher-value compost: The utilization of Ferro Bio in the biogas desulfurization process results in the formation of iron sulfide and pure sulfur. These compounds provide enhanced properties to compost, generating a final product with higher added value and additional benefits for use as fertilizer.

    6.Avoids physical risks and toxicity: Ferro Bio poses no physical risks or toxicity to people, equipment, or the environment. Our solutions have been developed with a focus on safety and sustainability, ensuring a desulfurization process that is environmentally friendly and safe for human health.

    Why choose FerroBio Group:

    1.Proven experience: With years of experience in the field of H2S removal in biogas, we have successfully completed numerous projects in various industrial sectors.

    2.Personalized approach: We understand that each project is unique and requires a tailored solution to its specific needs. We work closely with our clients to design customized solutions that deliver optimal results.

    3.Technical support and customer service: Our team of experts is always ready to provide technical support and answer any questions you may have. We take pride in offering exceptional customer service.

  • What is Biogas?

    What is Biogas?

    Biogas is a source of energy produced through anaerobic fermentation of various types of organic matter. This process is also known as anaerobic digestion and is carried out by the microbial communities put under certain conditions.

    The generated gas is made of methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2) and trace elements of other gases, hydrogen sulphide (H2S) being one of them.

    Anaerobic digestion also generates a type of digestate that is rich in nutrients (N, P, K, Ca, etc.) and organic matter that has lower levels of odours and whose main field of application is agriculture, where it is used as mineral fertiliser for crops.

    Prospects

    Biogas is the only renewable source of energy that can be used for any large scale energy application (electricity, thermal energy or fuel) and be easily stored to be used when necessary.

    Such versatility makes the anaerobic digestion the benchmark of the circular economy and the best option when it comes to valorising organic waste.

    Circular economy

    Biogas is used as a type of renewable fuel being the alternative to fossil fuels such as natural gas, petrol and coal on which we currently depend

    Biogas contributes to the circular economy.

    1. It simplifies organic waste management
    2. It enables waste valorisation by transforming it into biogas and organic bio-fertilisers.

    Main sources of biogas are agro waste, organic wastes from landfills, sewage sludge and organic waste from the agri-food industry.

    The world of Biogas

    MBS has developed and is currently supplying Ferro Bio – the key product used to reduce hydrogen sulphide (H2S) ever-present in biogas in different concentrations.

    Ferro Bio is an iron compound Fe (OH) 3, made of functional oxides and hydroxides that upon reaction with hydrogen sulphide generates iron sulphide and pure sulphur; substances that, in turn, are used as additives to enhance properties of fertilisers.

    Research and Development department of Ferro Bio has designed two products for biogas desulphurisation.

    1. Natura Ferro Bio
    2. Ferro Bio Pellet

    A large number of biogas installations (landfills, digesters, etc.) has inspired Ferro Bio to design a range of materials adjustable to all types of scenarios. This way, based on the requirements and specifications of the installations in question our team of engineers will devise the most efficient system to install, taking into consideration the residence time, concentration of contaminants such as hydrogen sulphide (H2S), volatile organic compounds (VOC) or siloxanes among others.

    Sulphurising techniques

    To avoid corrosion damages inflicted by H2S two techniques can be applied:

    • In Situ: Implies acting during the liquid phase (digestate) by applying iron-oxide and hydroxide minerals. In order to prevent bacteria from producing H2S gas, Ferro Bio must be added directly into the digester.

    This will trigger the chemical reaction, creating Iron Sulphide and Sulphur, which, in turn, will avoid the creation of H2S.

    • Gas-phase:: In this case, the technique is applied once the biogas has been created without being previously treated. Therefore, it takes place when the gas carries H2O.
